Research at Cafcass

 

Cafcass is committed to evidence-informed practice based on, amongst other things, good quality research.  As a part of this commitment, every year Cafcass becomes involved with research projects. In some cases the research is initiated by Cafcass. In other situations, external researchers contact Cafcass, asking for our help with their research. This can take a number of forms, for example:

  • Interviewing Cafcass staff
  • Obtaining information about our work from electronic and paper records
  • Contacting children and families who have received Cafcass services to ask if they want to participate in research projects.

Any researcher interested in doing research that involves Cafcass in any way must first obtain approval from the organisation.
